A work permit (PTW, Permit to Work) is the formal authorization required before high-risk tasks — hot work, confined-space entry, working at heights, electrical isolation, excavation. The permit binds the task to identified hazards, approved controls, named workers, and a time window. Aramco, SABIC, and Ma'aden enforce strict PTW workflows under HCIS rules. FI Tech AI cross-references CCTV worker-detections against active permits in the customer's permit-management system: if camera detects hot work in a zone with no active hot-work permit for the time window, an unauthorized-task alert fires within 15 seconds.
